PHP script runs over Browser but not with wget

I have a bash-sctipt running 5 php scripts via wget. Every php file is called but, on the last script, I get this warning:

mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in xyz.php, on line ABC

What it is really strange is, if I run the same script via browser, the script runs fine, without any warning.

This is my code near line ABC:

$sqlSTR="INSERT INTO accounts_cstm (id_c, mtk_categoriascompradas_c) VALUES ('". $arr[1] . "', '" . $arr[0] . "')
                    ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE mtk_categoriascompradas_c= concat(mtk_categoriascompradas_c, '^,^$arr[0]')";        

$ExecuteSQL = mysql_query ($sqlSTR, $DBConn) or
                die ($sqlSTR); //warning on this line - line ABC

My SQL is totally valid (if I run the query that is outputed in the "die" statement it runs perfectly), the DBConn is connected to the database and all other scripts run fine, except this one.

I really don't know what is causing this Warning. Any help will be welcome.

Thanks

Does the URL you are calling with wget have an ampersand in it? If you do, make sure your shell isn't interpreting it as a send process to background

Always use mysql_error() when you see this error message. Then you`ll know the exact reason, why the query was invalid.

Your problem actually lies with your database connection ($DBConn). Take a look at that code. Stick a var_dump in and try wgetting again.

Something definitely looks wrong with your last reference to $arr[0] in the query - I think it needs to be the following:

$sqlSTR="INSERT INTO accounts_cstm (id_c, mtk_categoriascompradas_c) VALUES ('". $arr[1] . "', '" . $arr[0] . "')
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE mtk_categoriascompradas_c= concat(mtk_categoriascompradas_c, '^,^".$arr[0]."')";
